The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



Mat 2, 1907. 



CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



A week of the best weather we have 

 had in a long time has not as yet made 

 its effect known on the quantity of stock 

 coming into this city, but there ought to 

 be something doing in that line before 

 long, especially if this kind of weather 

 holds out. It is so much warmer, and 

 we have had so much more sunshine, that 

 it surely ought to bring more flowers. 

 Business is still first-class and if it will 

 but hold out for a few weeks longer, we 

 will be more than satisfied. The way it 

 has started off this week would indicate 

 that the end is not in sight, for a while, 

 at least. The general scarcity of all 

 varieties of flowers still tends to keep 

 the prices up, and in some instaBces they 

 were boosted again last week. Roses con- 

 tinue fairly equal to the demand, but 

 when it conies to carnations it is another 

 story. There are not enough of them to 

 come anywhere near taking care of the 

 demand. And what is worse, from the 

 reports of many growers it would appear 

 that there will not be many of them for 

 some time to come. 



Green goods of all kinds are in demand 

 and good ferns are scarce, as the cold 

 storage supply is about uSed up. Smilax 

 is also scarce, but there is a fair supply 

 of Asparagus plumosus strings. 



Various Notes. 



Chas. Knopf, of Richmond, Ind., is 

 sending some fine Richmond and Liberty 

 to this market. The pick of them find a 

 ready sale at $1.50 per dozen. 



W. K. Partridge is in with a fine cut 

 of roses, and he is one of the few growers 

 who have a good crop of carnations in 

 sight, to be harvested soon. 



E. G. Gillett was in fepringfield, O., 

 Monday. 



Martin Reukauf, of Bayersdorf er 's, 

 Philadelphia, was a caller. 



C. J. Ohmer. 



Mansfield, O. — Peter Ott, who has his 

 headquarters here, is the chief florist of 

 the Baltimore & Ohio railroad lines west 

 of the Ohio river. 



Saginaw, Mich. — The Wm. Roethke 

 Floral Co. is setting an example by em- 

 bellishing the grounds around its place at 

 Michigan and Adams streets. The pub- 

 lic seems to take much interest in the 

 landscape work that is being done and 

 the prospects are that as an advertise- 

 ment it will be a winner.
